Magic: The Gathering Duels of the Planeswalkers Review

If you've read my review of Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012, you'll know I'm more or less pleased with its slick digital take on my favorite card game. DOTP 2012 does an excellent job of both teaching new and intermediate players the finer points of Magic the Gathering, while also acting as a fine time-waster for 'pros' like myself. That being said, though the core game did its job quite well, this minor expansion is really only worth picking up if you're one of the few people who hasn't moved onto playing the actual card game yet.

Want more of the restricted cards? Need to sell some cards
for some extra cash?
Here's how:
In the directory ProgramDecks in the Mtg directory, there
is a list of .dck's. These are the decks the creatures
you encounter in Shandalar will use. You can edit these
decks using the EDIT feature in DOS. IMPORTANT!! Only edit
one deck at a time, the game seems to lock up if you
do more than one. In the .dck file you will see the
creatures name, a .xxx number followed by the card name,
and it's sideboard(which you can leave alone). Now, using
the below information, you can edit any creature's deck
to have all of the powerful cards YOU want. Then, in the
game, create your deck to have 4 Bronze Tablets, and 4
Tempest Efreets. Simply walk around in Shandalar, and when
you see the creature you edited, duel it. Using Bronze
Tablet to steal what he casts, and Tempest Efreet to steal
whats in his hand, you get all the cool cards. The extreme
bonus to this is, the game doesn't expect you to do this!
I once got 35 Black Lotus for 1 Bronze Tablet!
Here are the numbers you will need to edit the decks:
Keep in mind you need to keep at least 40 cards in the
edited deck.
.17 Black Lotus .165 Mox Emerald .166 Mox Jet
.167 Mox Pearl .168 Mox Ruby .169 Mox Sapphire
.62 Demonic Tutor .202 Regrowth .14 Berzerk
.162 Mind Twist .510 Mishra's Workshop .503 Ivory Tower
.10 Balance .92 Fork .230 Sol Ring .1 Ancestrall Recall
.249 Time Walk .250 Timetwister .282 Wheel of Fortune
.25 Braingeyser .395 Ali from Cairo .248 Time Vault
.438 Library of Alexandria
As soon as you are able, right click the upkeep symbol to the
